Blog Candy! New Stamps

Okay, here's an easy one: tell me where you're from!! I have a new "Stately Flowers" set coming out this Thursday, and if you live in one of the states included in December's set, you just might be one of the first to get "Stately Flowers 2"! :) Let me know below!

I'll announce a winner on Wednesday. In the event that none of you live in one of the four states I included, (which I highly doubt!), I just may have to pick someone randomly (maybe tell me where your family lives as back up, hee hee) :)

Sneak peek of one of the flowers on Gina's blog today!Can you tell what flower it is and what state it represents? (bonus entry) ;)

Well, I live in Western Washington. I was born here and I just can't stray...although after long stretches of rain, I get the urge to travel to warmer climates. As for my family, most of them are here, except for the my little sister, who just moved to Florida!

By the way, I saw the peek of your flowers today and they sure are cute. I don't know what they are or what state they represent, so no bonus for me :)

Born in Washington and still here. Fortunately for me, most of my family is here too. One daughter in California. The sneak peak looks like apple blossoms to me and although it is not our State flower, we do grow a lot of apples here. In fact my sister and husband own an orchard and HUGE apple packing plants. Thanks for the chance. Your drawings are beautiful.

I was born in No. Carolina, but I also lived in Arizona, California and now live in Washington. I have family in all of these states. I think the flower in the sneak peek is a poppy if some kind. I hope you had a great Christmas!!!Yvette (beautimus1@yahoo.com)

Minnesota is my home state, though I spent almost half my lifetime in middle and Eastern Tennessee! So I claim both!This flower sneak peek reminds me of the Rose Of Sharon that I had growing in Tennessee. So lovely to have such a diverse collection of flora!Dreaming of Springtime.......~Sandie

I'm from Cape Cod Massachusetts....I am thinking that the states & flowers will be of the DT's states first.....so wherever you're all from! :) Got the Make A Statement set though as it was oh so cute! Merry Merry!

For the last 8 years I have lived in Iowa. Before that I lived in Indiana for 20 years. And for my first 43 years I lived in Illinois. I told my husband we are not going to try the other "I" state, esp. at our ages.Jean McGee

I was born in Davenport, Iowa. My parents moved all over and I have lived in New Jersey, South Carolina, Florida, Wisconsin and California before I was married. I lived in California for over 17 years, then we moved to New Mexico, Massachusets, Texas and back to California. In 1989 we moved to Orem, UT and finally, five years ago we moved to Billings, MT. We are hoping that this will be our final move as we are in our 70s now.

Clever! I live in Oregon. Grew up in Florida; college in Tennessee; lived and worked in New York; retired in California; moved to Oregon - God's country - and intend to stay here...coast to coast to coast is enough!!! LOL!Jan

Woohoo! Thanks for the chance, Mel. Nice to win a little something AFTER the holiday hoopla dies down. I live in Florida and consider myself a Floridian, but hail from Pennsylvania originally, and almost all of my family lives there.

Hi Melanie!! I was born and raised in LA, followed my husband and his job to TN, AL, ME, TX, and now reside in SC! My grands live in NC and I have a brother in AR. We are rather scattered - my other son lives in Prague, Czech Republic! LOVE your stamps!!

Ok, I'm not much of a flower person but that sure looks like a Wild Prarie Rose and I'm from North Dakota, one of the states that has it as state flower so please pick me! Oh and my daughter lives in Montana, my son in Indiana, brother in MN.

Don't have a clue what flower was the sneak peek, but I know it's not the SC state flower (my birth state). I've also lived in NC, NH, CA, MI, OH, NY, and am now residing in AZ. Looking forward to seeing your Stately Flowers 2!

I see that Colorado's state flower made it into the first set. This flower looks like the Wild Prairie Rose and there are two species, one for Iowa and the leaves look like this one and the other for North Dakato. I live in Colorado and born in Nebraska. The military moved us to Ohio, Florida, Alabama and Virginia. As a child I lived in Arizona and still have family there.

I'd love to think that New Hampshire's beautiful Purple Lilac would be in your new set of Stately flowers. With Spring just around the corner, it would be a wonderful flower for my collection.Thanks for the chance to win your charming stamps.

I have no idea what those flowers are I am thinking Missouri's state flower the Hawthorn.I live in OR. but I have family in MI., Ca.,MO., TX., UT., AZ., WA. and a brother over seas fighting for our country.
